Setting Color Bit Depth

The range of colors available through digital computer images is usually expressed in terms of bit depth. This expression refers to the number of bits of data carrying the color information. Common bit depth levels for images include 8-bit and 24-bit color. In general, more bits of data make more colors available. The Color bit depth option applies only to .gif and .png images. .jpg images always generate 32-bit images.
